Not too fun, but at least if you can get that RB chord front end down it's pretty straight forward past act 1.

@EvilApple567 true. Did you ever hit/test the half bar act?

I see we had the same idea about the 1st act (makes sense), your 2nd act change was definitely interesting though lol

@@EvilApple567 It just "felt" easier for me that way. You know how it is haha

Only have 2 packs, but yeah might as well. Don't have any immediate plans for RGH, from the one GH1 pack I have squeezing those songs isn't very interesting due to the abundance of SP.

YT hid your comment from the naughty language lmao, this algorithm would've never survived the late 2000's era of GH commenting.

Those are the EHW (extended hit window) fret trick glitch ticks mentioned in the description discovered by Jilde near the beginning of this year (on this song coincidentally). What you're essentially doing is tricking the game into completing the sustain early on a different fret by abusing the rather jank EHW mechanics. The execution for it is to strum on the sustain (within the following note's hit window) and input that note while still holding the sustain's fret, which is obviously impossible under normal circumstances. The earlier and more precise you perform this, the more glitch ticks you earn obviously. Max EHW fret trick glitch ticks require both a frame perfect strum like regular glitch ticks, but also a frame perfect fret of the following note on the next frame which makes them significantly harder to optimize.

Thank you for taking the time to watch and leave thoughtful comments. TH will be uploaded, but since I pretty much always upload chronologically (post run breakdowns often don't make sense otherwise making references to other/recent runs that haven't been posted) it will be a bit.

im actually not sure i mightve used it for the ticking acts its been so long ago lol

Honestly I'm hesitant to believe any differences exist in the engines besides removal of the hopo glitch, they feel pretty much identical to me across the board. As long as we can't take Xbox frame by frame (or better yet view the source code for those so inclined) it's all speculation. I had no issues with Misirlou (aside from the intro I suck at regardless), Six, or BatH. EHW also seems to work the exact same (which is essentially the "buffer" you're referring to) so I'm kind of at a loss on where this even started besides the rather obvious notion that people early on most likely played Xbox on an HDTV and PS2 on CRT. Idk where the improved hopo claim came from either (or whether this is even true on 80's), GH2's hopo engine is pretty straight forward (if you fret within the hit window and don't ascending ghost it works afaik, many hours in TAS to back this up) so unless the timing windows are increased (again, doubtful from my experience in many songs and lack of Xbox dominated scores in songs with tight hopo acts) or they modified how hopos interact/eat your strum inputs (most plausible theory) I don't see how that could be possible. Even the hit window placement tbh I don't see. If anything when I first transitioned over I was hitting things too late, though as I went over in Drink Up I believe that was due to Xbox's display output being slightly larger placing the strikeline closer to the bottom of the screen, or perhaps the adapter causing a frame of input delay. I don't mean to discount or disregard your experience, I appreciate you sharing it, these are just my honest opinionated responses atm.

@@EvilApple567 I don’t think you’re discounting my experience at all. I think conversations like this help make sense of engine “phenomenons”, especially since you have many hours banked in TAS and have the scores to back up your claims. At the end of the day it’s all we have until the source code leaks. I’ve been waiting with bated breath for this to happen with GH1 to make sense of its inconsistent HOPO logic.

This is the 360 version, click on the ps2 tab and you'll see all his other scores

Just the exclusives, song(s) with bad "adjusted" metrics on SH (afaik just Stop, all others like Jessica, Heart-Shaped Box, and Monkey Wrench are direct conversions and exceptions like X-Stream have no functional differences), and the 6 DLC I have. I can't tell if people are being sarcastic about the SD quality lmao, I have an elgato that I used for FSFC stuff but still want to play this on CRT for multiple reasons.

From everything I've done so far, Xbox seems superior in every way. The load times alone make a big difference, menuing is super quick in general (making going in and out of practice less of a pain). No hopo glitch and extra content (most of which are better than many base tracks) are appreciated, also I'm pretty sure "Xbox strumming" is just a myth so from a gameplay perspective I can't see any real faults comparatively. The increased visual fidelity is imo a blessing and curse though, the fretboard/UI elements look much better, but I find some of the characters like Axel didn't upscale all that well (and that's just in standard definition) giving off a bit of uncanny with their "smoothness".
